About .30 cents to 1.00 dollar, depending on the condition of the coin. There were close to 50 million of these nickels minted, so they are not exceedingly rare.

How do you tell a silver nickel from a regular nickel?

You can differentiate between a silver nickel and a regular nickel by checking the date on the coin. If the date is 1942-1945, it could be a silver nickel as those were made with silver during World War II. Regular nickels are made primarily of copper and nickel. You can also use a magnet to check - silver nickels are not magnetic, while regular nickels are.
